So, the short story is I have a 10.4.2 client image fully up to date through the latest security update 2005-07. The local administrator and domain administrators can log in just fine, but when I use a normal user account from AD for the first time, it creates the local home directory but the user doesn't have the correct permissions to actually access the folders within their local home directory.
I had this working a few weeks ago and nothing has changed on the server, just my client image. So I'm pretty sure it is a client issue. On the client side I am forcing a local home directory to be used.
Any help, ideas, or info from others with a similar problems would be much appreciated. Thanks!
